Is this a dig or just a casual statement?
Seen the incident a few times, The refs 100 percent thought… I can’t and don’t want to attempt to keep up with play so he has blown the whistle. Simon Hooper just seems unfit as a referee, he struggles to keep up in games and it effects his decision making.
It’s also a way of saying that Arteta was correct in his rants.
I can’t wait for all managers to use this new saying to avoid charges from the FA hahaha
You should do Everton instead.
Pep tossing out some random fire at Arteta could get hilarious.
IMO I think this is a dig at the FA about what happened to Arteta for questioning a really terrible decision. He’s saying he feels the same way as Arteta, but knows he will get in trouble for saying the same kind of thing
Watch the interview. He said no comment and then proceeded to talk about it for several minutes lol like an episode of Arrested Development

Guy has no balls. Atleast Arteta spoke from his heart. Have the courage to do so or stfu
Honestly this man’s arrogance is unbelievable
The mind games begin…
Arteta did the dirty work, this is a clever way of saying the word without saying it because everyone knows what he meant but he’s not gonna be suspended and/or fined.
He and Arteta are mates and probably are going to have a laugh about it next time they meet.
So he said the Mikel Arteta statement without saying the actual statement and avoided the punishment. Pep might have created a new template here.
It was pretty enjoyable match both dropped point good for Reds.
Proper cheeky that
